About Oakhill Lawyers
Your Trusted Local Lawyers in Rosanna & Carlton
A Local Law Firm Focused on People
Based in Rosanna, with meeting space in Carlton, we proudly support businesses of all sizes, individuals and families across Banyule, Melbourne’s northern suburbs and throughout Victoria and Australia with reliable legal services in estate planning, commercial law, probate and property law.
We understand that legal matters often come at important — and sometimes difficult — moments in life. That’s why we take a thoughtful, personalised approach to every client we work with.
Our Story
Oakhill Lawyers was founded by Clare Agostinelli, an experienced legal practitioner with a strong background in wills, estates and property law.
With 20 years of experience working across Melbourne, Clare established Oakhill Lawyers to create a boutique law firm that puts people first — combining legal expertise with a genuine, approachable style.
The name “Oakhill” reflects strong local roots and a commitment to helping clients build secure, long-term foundations — just like a growing oak tree.
"We value being able to follow clients through all stages of their life, as their lives, families and businesses evolve. It’s the most rewarding part of being in law."

Our Services
Estate Planning
We possess extensive knowledge and experience in all areas of estate planning, enabling us to provide tailored strategies that protect your assets and ensure your family’s long-term security.
Deceased Estates
The loss of a loved one is a sensitive time. We take care of the complex legal requirements of winding up an estate, allowing you to focus on what matters most while we handle the probate and administration process.
Property Law & Conveyancing
Whether you are selling or buying, property transactions are a significant milestone. We enjoy making the process as smooth as possible, ensuring every contract is sound and every settlement is successful.
Commercial Law
From drafting commercial agreements to advising on companies and trusts, we prepare a range of robust legal frameworks that protect your business interests and support your professional goals.
How We Charge
We understand how important it is for our clients to manage their budgets effectively without the fear of hidden legal costs. Oakhill Lawyers is committed to price transparency, offering clear, upfront quotes and fixed-fee structures for the majority of our services so you can stay informed and in control of your legal spend from start to finish.
Our “no surprises” approach to billing reflects our core value of accessibility; we believe that high-quality legal advice should be predictable and fair. By providing a straightforward breakdown of costs at the beginning of our engagement, we build a relationship based on trust, allowing you to focus on the legal outcome rather than the invoice.
